Ní cinnte gur logainm Gaeilge é seo. Ón 19ú haois an fhianaise is sine dá maireann; seans gurbh ainm galánta é a bhain leis an teach mór anseo. - English
stone fence of (the) (old, sacred) tree?
The word bile was pronounced beile in the local dialect.
It is not certain that this placename is of Irish provenance. The earliest evidence dates from the 19th century; it is possible that it is a fancy name connected to the big house here. - English
